StardustDC++

Created by Agent 0017 (sddcpp@gmail.com

StardustDC++ is the result of years studying client coding and coding clients myself. This client has matured to be a good user's client, as its detection does not interfere with the protocol (like most detection tools do, like DC++k CDM and DCDM++ in particular) and it does not contain explicit OP tools. The client contains among many these splashing features:

  • 100% compatible with DC++ settings, queues and favorites.
  • Analytic detection, no interference with the protocol.
  • Animated images (emoticons!).
  • Automatically updates theme, without needing to reboot.
  • Chat background image.
  • Colorize every part of the client.
  • Compress/decompress any file using Z-Lib, BZip 2 or Huffman encoding.
  • Control Winamp via easy and sleek command line and with the cool mediabar!
  • Convert your favorite StrongDC++ (and other DC++ clones) emoticon packs to StardustDC++!
  • Copy any information from any user.
  • Download and upload files even if there is no TTH root for the files!
  • Enhanced keyword options (image, sound, highlighting).
  • Export and import your resources, keywords and more with others using a simple file.
  • Extended chat coloring and styling.
  • Fullscale analytic detection, including recognition of tags, $Lock/$Pk and fake shares.
  • Fully customizable theme support.
  • Great amount of userlist options within a theme.
  • Impressive interface options (tabs, toolbars).
  • Run multiple instances at the same time!
  • Set text on hub and PM tabs yourself!
  • Show others what Winamp is playing.
  • Supports up to 18 different image formats including bmp, gif, jpg, png and wmf.
  • Threaded userlist filtering.

Notes about this version:

  • The mediabar is causing a lockup when booting the client or when connecting to hubs. To disable the mediabar from startup download the fixed mediabar settings file from the Data Packs page and overwrite the SdDC++.sds settings. For safety, keep the mediabar off until the next update.

Want to know what I'm working on next? well here's a short preview:

StardustDC++ 0.25 ...
  • Backup all your settings and data to one big, handy StardustDC++ backupfile (.sdb)!
  • DCDM++ client profile converter: convert your favorite client profiles from DCDM++ to StardustDC++!
  • You see an unidentified client in the userlist? Rightclick to connect to the user and add a client profile for it!
  • A splashing new theme!
Do not expect too much of this yet, since I did not code anything for 2 years.
